In a groundbreaking move, Fantom announced the development of Sonic technology in a bid to transform the landscape of blockchain scalability. This innovation comes as a result of meticulous research and development, building on the foundation laid by the initial Opera network released in December 2019. 
Led by the visionary Andre Cronje and his dedicated technical team, the Opera network marked a significant milestone as the first permissionless Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG)-based protocol. Boasting impressive achievements, such as a maximum throughput of nearly 200 transactions per second (TPS) and sub-600ms finality, it showcased vast improvements in scalability and transaction speed compared to Ethereum’s capabilities at the time. 
However, despite its success, the Opera network faced challenges during periods of high demand, leading to congestion and a compromised user experience. In response, the Fantom team embarked on a two-year journey to develop <a rel="nofollow" href="https://blog.fantom.foundation/michael-kong-unveils-sonics-launch-and-beyond/" target="_blank">Sonic technology</a>, aiming to overcome these limitations and usher in a new era of blockchain scalability. 
Sonic represents a monumental leap forward, with the capacity to process up to 2,000 TPS at sub-second finality. This advancement also marks a significant evolution from Opera’s capabilities and underscores Fantom’s commitment to innovation. 
With Sonic’s unparalleled technical capabilities, Fantom aims to establish a new standard for blockchain infrastructure. Furthermore, the technology will serve as the foundation for a shared sequencer, capable of processing over 180 million daily transactions with real-time confirmation.

In recent days, there has been a notable decrease in the available supply of FTM among traders, indicating a shift towards accumulation by mid-term and long-term holders. This trend suggests a growing confidence in the future potential of FTM. 
Despite being in the overbought zone, FTM’s price remains supported by positive market sentiment, as indicated by its 7-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) showing high investor interest. Additionally, the bullish trajectory suggested by the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) lines hints at the possibility of <a href="https://coingape.com/markets/fantom-price-forecast-is-3-5-achievable-post-sonic-upgrade-anticipation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FTM reaching a 2-year high</a> in the near term. 
Currently, the FTM 7-day RSI stands at 77, slightly lower than the previous week’s 81, indicating a marginal decline. However, historical data suggests that FTM’s price has continued to climb for extended periods, even when the RSI indicated overbought conditions.
